Hawk Stalks

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

Ron Geesin presents the last of six programmes on the work of saxophonist Coleman Hawkins.
Hawk's Heart. Three aspects of composition - the written piece, the unaccompanied improvisation, and the complete session in which Hawkins moulds the pieces into an apparent four-movement work. On that session in May 1944, Hawkins was joined by Teddy Wilson (piano), John Kirby (bass) and Sidney Catlett (drums) to record
Make believe, Don't blame me, Just one of those things, and Hallelujah as the frenzied climax.
Producer Derek Drescher
